The thread for reason, scientific study and truth.

That is probably the best video I've seen on either one of the thinking threads in here. Brilliant, brilliant find.

Even the artwork made me think more about what was being said. I am going to share that with everyone i speak to this weekend. Thanks S!

 

This kid is right on the money

 

I have been doing my best to meditate lately, due to some undesirable negative emotions... I find having the right music to correct the negativity helps greatly. This is a recent find I am most pleased with.

 

HA! found that family guy vid I wanted to post earlier

 

Wow, haven't been here in a while...

The truth I think of today is:
Some one will always try to mess with you, how will you deal with that?

 

I suppose I will answer my own question...
You stand strong, say your beliefs, and use your mind as it was intended, as a tool of truth.

In the shadow of saturn.

An image taken of saturn from behind in total eclipse of the sun. If you look at the little dot inside the ring at the left hand side, that little speck. That's the earth.

 

The largest galaxy in the universe.

 

I think he (Daniel Kahneman) could have delivered the information better in a shorter amount of time, but the information was good, thanks jamms

 

Dawkin's is great to listen to

I just had a thought after seeing the above video, superstitious(religious) people might not have the mental or physical faculties to become atheistic... The complexity might be beyond their comprehension. Their individualism and will might be consisted of so shallow a facade, that the actuality and reality of atheistic (permanent) death could destroy their confidence in living. I know it did to me for a time, but I got over it. Other I know were not so fortunate. Reality can be very harsh.

That's what religion is all about really, eternal life. Take a few moment to look at the words "eternal life"

Doesn't that make you feel better? less afraid of death?

I suppose I prefer truth to blissful ignorance.

 

Well worth the time. It had more than a few things I didn't know.
